Guess Whos Calling Us

The bells have been ringing for us here for a long time. 
The phone has begun to ring for us to announce that we’re going to the next grade or graduating. 
We’re moving toward setting higher goals and facing different challenges. 
I hear the phone ringing. Don’t you? 
Who’s calling us? It’s time to go to the next level.  
Who’s calling us? It’s the future. We did the things that we were set out to do. 
We did our best and it’s time to forget about the rest.  
We’re being called by who? The future is on a larger bus. 
Yes, the future’s calling us.
